FUN FUN FUN
Saw a client today then it was off to the Flying Club to do some planning of social events. We have a very special “Swing Band” night planned and it is really taking off – a good thing I would say, to have happen at an airport – the “taking off” I mean. There will be three bands involved, around eighty musicians and we hope to have a Beech 18
in the corner and some professional catering and so on. It is easy to be enthusiastic with the group with whom I am working with to make this a reality.
Mind you, first things first and September 9th is the Corn Roast. Some of the flyers offered to bring back real Taber Corn
but there is an old saying that “if you’ve got time to spare then go by air and if you have to get there, go commercial”. Since we really MUST have CORN at the CORN ROAST, we gratefully declined and asked only that they come to enjoy the festivities – and of course help with the cleaning, cooking and anything else where a hand might be needed. It was amazing how quickly things came together today, tasks assigned, volunteers to pick up materials, etc, etc. We are hoping for around 150 souls and of course, the likelihood of rain is quite good that late into September, so we shall refer to them hardy souls.
Anyway, I am off to the Club tomorrow to clean the freezer where some nodnick put a bleeding animal – at least we hope it was an animal. In any case it is a bit of a mess and needs to be seen to.

It is too bad, for the first time in a very long time, we are not going to be able to attend the corn roast :-(

Sorry to hear that. Can you keep November 4th open? Big Band, going to be a little more pricey but I think it will be worth it. If you decide to go, try to wear a costume from around that time period - i.e. WWII
